In Space, do Boomerangs come back?

Japanese astronaut Takao Doi is asking a question that seems fairly simple at first. How does a boomerang behave in a weightless environment. Without the pull of gravity, will the ancient hunting device return to the person who threw it? When the Space Shuttle Endeavour launches on March 11, Doi will be carrying a pair of paper boomerangs to the International Space Station. There Doi will soon find out by throwing some around inside the station. The boomerangs were presented to Doi by the Japanese champion Yasuhiro Togai, who suspects that the devices will spiral up and away from the thrower.
